A Day in the Life of an HVAC Tech: Winter Calls in Colorado

6:00 AM – Rise and Shine

The morning starts early when you’re in the heating repair business. As I grab my essential tools and check the day’s schedule, I can see my breath in the cold Colorado air. Working for All Climate Systems means being ready for anything, especially during these chilly winter months.

7:30 AM – First Call in Brighton

My first stop is a routine furnace inspection. These preventative maintenance calls are crucial – they help homeowners avoid those dreaded middle-of-the-night emergency calls when temperatures plummet below freezing.

10:00 AM – Emergency Call in Westminster

Just finished in Brighton when dispatch calls about a no-heat situation. An elderly couple’s furnace stopped working overnight. These are the calls that remind me why I love this job – being able to restore warmth to someone’s home is incredibly rewarding.

Common Issues I Encounter Daily:

  • Faulty thermostats
  • Dirty filters causing system strain
  • Pilot light issues
  • Worn fan motors
  • Heat exchanger problems

2:00 PM – Heater Installation in Thornton

The afternoon involves a new system installation. It’s satisfying to upgrade an outdated system to an energy-efficient model that will keep a family warm for years to come.

5:00 PM – Wrapping Up in Broomfield

Final call of the day is a quick service check. As I complete my paperwork and prepare for tomorrow, I reflect on how every day brings new challenges and opportunities to help our community stay comfortable through Colorado’s demanding winters.

Being an HVAC technician means being ready for anything, and at All Climate Systems, we pride ourselves on rising to every challenge the weather throws our way.
